Doesn't look like the same blue...but DAMN that is a nice colour....anyone know the paint code? It's close enough to my colour that I wouldn't have to paint inside doors etc.

 

Cheers for the pic dude

Ok, so some items arrived today.

 

First up we have my new source of music....HUGE thanks to Kangaroosa for picking this up and sending it to me, Thanks mate.

Tonight is my last night at work for 7 nights, so some real progress should be made with this beast in the next week.

 

Will post up more pics later. Should be ready to pass rego within the next week, new ignition is the main thing, and just need to do some "dodgy brothers" rust repairs on the guards...Can't wait til it is registered and I can put my new 5K in :D

Back to work after my 7 nights off :down:

 

Got a fair bit of work done, not quite as much as I would have hoped.....but still.

 

And here's the pics.

 

First thing I did was stereo install, as I hate driving with no mooosic.

 

Head unit (Man I love this CD player)

I also put the new door locks and ignition in.

I've never put new door locks in a car before, they are such a pleasure to use compared to the old ones...new stuff rocks haha.

 

Due to the engine having a bit of an oil leak, the engine bay was....umm a mess, to say the least, unfortunately I didn't take any before pics.

But here's what it looks like after a crap load of degreaser.

Cheers...I love having a wagon...so so handy.

 

We have done some ummm *cough* Rust repairs....They proved to be a little more difficult than first thought, but I think they have come up quite well.

Damn right u will :jamie:

 

So, rust repairs=complete, big thanks to my mate for one side, and to Thomo for the other side :P

 

It's booked in for a rego check on Thursday morning (Please be kind Jim) and depending on what happens then, It should be registered by Monday.

 

Picking up KE20 on Saturday either way, and will be quickly pulling the 5K out, then selling the KE20 (Either in parts or complete)

 

And then need to have the 5K in by Thursday night when I go back to work again...it's gunna be a tough task, but I should be able to do it.

 

 

I've been very lazy with the pics...I will get more up soon.

Everyone will be at work, with the exception of Sammo from on here hopefully, otherwise it will be entirely me....which is fine, and I have done it many many many many many many times alone, it's just the time limit factor that is freaking me out...Just in case something goes pear shaped.
